Ciara fears her ex may murder her fiancé

Los Angeles - Ciara claims her fiancé Russell Wilson is in danger of being murdered by Future.

The 30-year-old singer is suing her former partner - with whom she has two-year-old son Future Jr. - for defamation and has just filed legal documents stating various threats he has allegedly made against her and the football player.

According to TMZ, she mentions a football emoji with guns pointing in their direction which Future posted a while ago, and also referenced a song he dropped last month which includes the lyrics "Tryna fuck my baby mama, dog what's up with you? You gon' make me get that heat, I'm pulling up on you."

In the documents, Ciara slams her ex-lover's conduct as "frightening" and "socially irresponsible ... where there has been a recent rash of gun violence."

Though she believes the threat against them is real, the Goodies hitmaker doesn't explain in her documents how they relate to her defamation case.

Previous lawsuits

After Ciara sued Future for $15m, accusing him of libel and slander, the rapper hit back with his own countersuit but recently asked a judge to dismiss his case.

It was claimed he had a change of heart after being granted joint custody of his son and was worried that if he continues feuding with Ciara, she will try to "restrict his custodial rights".

Ciara filed her own lawsuit after Future - whose real name is Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn - took to social media to launch a furious rant against her, claiming that she was denying him access to their son.

He wrote: "This bitch got control problems... I gotta go through lawyers to see babyfuture...the fuckery for 15k a month. (sic)."

After claiming that he pays $15k in child support every month, Future went on to insist that he just wants to see his son and has run out of patience.

He said: "I jus want babyfuture that's all. I been silent for a year & a half..I ran outta patience

"Get ready for this classic. Handling my business staying focus making music surrounded by real love & family (sic).'

However, Ciara, 32, believes that 30-year-old Future - who has four children with four different women - is slamming her in order to get publicity and is just annoyed that she has moved on with Russell, 27.

A source said: "Ciara has said that Future uses the situation to promote his music by staying in the press using her name.

"He is jealous she has moved on and is happy. He is unable to move on and co-parent in a healthy way. Future has told her he hopes she fails in everything she does and that's just being evil.'
